On the back of the victory away to Maccabi Bnei Reineh and before hosting Hapoel Hadera on Saturday (15:00) four first team players: Eran Zahavi, Yonatan Cohen, Daniel Peretz and Gabi Kanichowsky arrived at Bloomfield stadium’s VIP lounge for an event which was attended by thousands of Maccabi fans.
During the event which was held in the Chanuka festive spirit the players met the fans, signed autographs and had their photos taken with some of the young Maccabi faithfull.
Gabi Kanichowsky who spoke with the media that covered the event, said: “It is always fun to interact with the Maccabi fans, talk to them and put a smile on their faces. As players we must first remember that we are privileged to be able to make them happy”.
With an early Saturday kickoff against Hadera, the stadium is supposed filled to its’ capacity: “I think and hope that it will be full just like in every other home match. Our fans follow us everywhere as more than 2000 followed us to Nof Hagallil on Monday in Chanuka instead of spending time with their families at home. This is just something we should cherish and repay them with performances on the pitch. We really need them because there moments we need them to give us the solupport and push we need sometimes”
